It must have been the only suitable water source for washing round here at the time.<br />I'm not so sure the neighbours would appreciate my choice of music ;)<br /><br />ISP change over went very smoothly. Changing email addresses on file with certain companies was more fraught!Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-90712072118389786932009-12-12T18:31:33.924+00:002009-12-12T18:31:33.924+00:00Hello Jan.

It is often easier to put several together.<br />I am a bit worried about the Skimmia as it can be chalky round here.<br />It is great to see the LTTs around the garden again.<br />I think Bobby's medication is similar to a corticosteroid. I have to have the same sort of checks with the medication I have for gout. He can try a quarter of a tablet daily late next week.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-73284240556046360622009-12-12T18:18:44.670+00:002009-12-12T18:18:44.670+00:00Those sparrows are certainly having fun!

The blackbird's serrated tail did look a sorry sight but hopefully it won't cause him any problems.<br /><br />How lovely to see the return of the LTTs, I think they are such delightful little birds, I hope mine come back soon. <br /><br />Last but definitely not least, I am so glad Bobby is doing well and tolerating the medication, I'm guessing they may be a corticosteroid, hopefully you will be able to maintain him on the lowest dose possible.ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8626959970978663576.post-13697788914651029282009-12-12T08:51:34.387+00:002009-12-12T08:51:34.387+00:00They did Keith.

You don't have to be able to play any instruments. It has thousands of short 'musical' blocks which you slide on to a time line. Very addictive I found.<br /><br />I am very relieved Bobby has progressed so well though the vet did emphasise that he has to be kept calm - some hopes. Short walks, no jumping, etc..<br /><br />Very smooth ISP migration. Tried the usual connection - already disabled. Plugged in the new router and in less than 5 mins I had my new connection to Zen. They pre configure the router so all I had to do was plug it in.

I've been looking at changes of tracks etc too for my videos. I'm trying a trail version of Pinnacle 14 but not really had enough time to look into it fully enough. <br /><br />Great to hear the good news on Bobby.
